17. I'm terrible. How are you?

I ran back to my room with tears in my eyes and a moment later Liam walked in "this is a stupid question but how are you?" Liam asked

"I'm terrible. How are you?" I asked

"Oh my poor light." Liam said "how long will it take for you to be my shining light again?" He asked

"I don't know. Forever." I said

"You have to deal with the rain to get the rainbow" he smiled at himself because he quoted that from my favorite movie The Fault In Our Stars.

I smiled back it was one of my fake smiles it look everything in me to do but I wanted him to feel like he was helping me I mean he was already by him holding me and I wanted him to know he made me smile.

~5 months later~

Every thing was now different in my life. Liam was practically living in my room the only time he went home was to get clothes. I knew he would rather be somewhere else but it felt good when he held me. Of course when he was recording for the tour and practicing he wasn't here and I missed him terribly. Harry and I haven't spoken to each other and I haven't seen him. I try my hardest to avoid Niall and Harry when ever there over and so far it's working. I have gotten close to Luis and Zayn too and they make me laugh and for just one second I forget all about my horrible life and I started cutting again. My favorite songs have changed like Say something, human and I hate you I love you are my new favorite songs they used to be she looks so perfect, 18 and cooler then me.

I woke up next to Liam like I had been doing for the past 5 months. I remember a time when Rain knocked on my door.

~Flash back~

It was 8:30 when I woke up next to Liam it was hot last night so he slept in his underwear only. I wore a sports bra and matching underwear when I heard a knock on my door. I put on a shirt and asked who it was. "Um it's Rain." She said

"Oh what do you want?" I asked

"Ugh just let me in Skyler that's your name right?"

"Yeah it is" as I opened the door I saw she was wearing Niall's boxers and his shirt.

"Oh" she said looking up and down my body "did you and Liam..?" She asked

"That is no of your business!" I yelled

"Listen I need to use your bathroom." She said

"Why? No you can't use Niall's." I said

"He's in the bathroom duh. God did that guy beat you senseless? Jake was it?" She said

"Who told you!" I yelled

"Duh Niall? I guess he did beat you senseless." She said "so can I use your bathroom?" She asked

"NO!" I yelled

"Is their something wrong?" A string Irish voice asked. I knew the voice it was the voice I had been avoiding for 5 months. It was Niall's voice.
